Well, this is somewhat encouraging:

Well, there's reason to rejoice, because the struggle between the corrupt company Jennings & Rall and the tattered remnants of the American government might not be over. "The Jericho movie is in development," spoke Karim Zriek, continuing, "there's going to be announcement probably this coming week, not about a Jericho movie, but about another avenue which we're going to continue telling the Jericho story."

Jericho charity update:

Welcome Home to Jericho: A Charity Event was at The Sportsmen’s Lodge in Studio City, Calif., from April 24 to 26. Howell was the social chairwoman, which she said “is only as successful as the people she has working with her.” She added that “our creative team (is) 100 percent volunteer.”

Jericho Movie update:

The movie is now listed on IMDB Pro as in development. I am sure the movie is far from being a done deal, but this is encouraging.

I saw a program the other day (of course I am having brain fade) and the guy that played Stanley was in it. I want to say if was either a Criminal Minds or Mentalist episode but I could be wrong...........

Well, at least we get the rest of the story - we still got a 50/50 shot at the movie, and if the comic book does well it will help the cause :)

from Facebok:

Dear Jericho Rangers,

In October, Devil's Due Publishing will release the first of six issues of Jericho: Season 3 - Civil War. This is a continuation of the story that began in Jericho and will pick up from the end of season 2. The success of this comic book will help move the Jericho movie further down the development pipeline. We realize that for some fans purchasing comic books may be something new or something you haven't done in years. We are sending out this email to provide you the information you need to purchase the new comic book.

You can purchase the comic at your local comic shop. You can locate your local comic shop at http://www.comicshoplocator.com. Some shops will even let you pre-order, or hold aside the comics for you.

If you don't have a local comic shop in your area, one of the best on-line mail order services is http://www.mycomicshop.com . It is run by Lone Star Comics, the largest comic retailer in Texas. While they don't have pre-order available, it will be available for order in the new releases section (http://www.mycomicshop.com/newreleases ) the week of each month the comic is published. This is also good option if you want to buy multiples of each issue - they do offer free shipping for order of $50 or more! They will also be stocking the comics as "back issues".

While DDP is planning on putting out a graphic novel of these first six issues in early 2010, it is important that we support the individual comic issues as the sales figures for these are what CBS Consumer Products (the licensing arm of CBS Television Studios) and DDP will be looking at. The Sales figures are also important for the graphic novel, but the ongoing individual comic issues are what count the most! So, October to February, we need to buy and support each issue.

Also, Jericho Rangers for Our Troops (JR4OT) is providing Comic Relief for Our Troops. This is an opportunity for you to provide the comic book through donations to our troops overseas. Please visit http://www.comicsfortroops.com for details.

For those who might be interested in learning more about comics and a have a chance to meet up will other Jericho Rangers, we suggest you visit your local comic book convention. You can find conventions in your area by visiting http://www.conventionscene.com/schedule ... nventions/

Please help support our effort to continue the Jericho story by making Jericho: Season 3 - Civil War a success.

Thank You,

Your Fellow Jericho Rangers

"Jake and Hawkins finally get their hands on the mysterious John Smith but before they do we get Mr. Smith's story. It turns out that he was responsible for all of the nuclear bombs destroying a number of American cities."

many Spoilers - beware:

Episode 4 of the comic is out - see above post. Mimi may be pregnant. Eric will be marrying Mary.

It looks like Skeet is going to be killed off on Law and Order:LA, and there is new rumor that CBS is going to produce a "wrap up episode" of Jericho. Probably a two hour TV movie - fingers crossed.
